Serenity Bay, Keowee Lakefront Cabin, Covered Dock, Kayaks, Clean, Near Clemson
We have been renting our home since 2013 with overwhelmingly 5-star reviews. The reviews have frequently commented on the cleanliness, spaciousness and comfort of the beds and furniture. The 3-story layout allows for private sleeping or hanging out areas, but also a large great room for all to gather together. Our renters especially comment on our covered deck as their favorite hangout.
We have a covered dock to keep your boat protected from rain and sun, which is just a few easy steps from the house. Many houses on the lake have a very steep and or long walk to the lake. Our house is about 50 steps from the lake with a very easy grade.
Another nice feature of our house is the cove that we sit in. It is wide and deep enough for comfortable floating and swimming but does not get fast boat traffic and waves like other homes on the bigger parts of the lake. We also have 4 kayaks available for our renters to use.
We spend a lot of time and effort to keep our house maintained, clean and updated. If you choose, we think you will be extremely happy with your stay.

Family Reunion
The residence and its setting are beautiful. The house is exceptionally comfortable. We enjoyed many happy meals and good conversations there. We loved our day on the lake using a rented pontoon boat. Paddle boarding in the slough and fishing from the dock added joy to our days.

So Much Fun
We rented jetskis and had a blast. We hung out on the porch as a family, the young adults made use of the fire and that hang-out room downstairs! The beds were super comfortable and the kayaks and SUP let me get my tan on. Thanks so much for a wonderful graduation adventure!

Would definitely recommend!
We had such a great time at this rental. The location of the house is in a very quiet cove. The fishing was great, the swimming was safe, and the convenience of the dock were top notch! The home had everything we could need and so much more! We can’t wait to come back!

Lake Keowee Friends Getaway
House was great for 4 adult couples - ample hangout space inside and on various porches. Everything was clean and well-labled for ease of use. Owner was very responsive and helped us to arrange parking for an extra car. Great views of the lake. We wanted to use the outdoor firepit but rain didn't allow it, but maybe next time!

Heaven on the Lake
The pictures of this property are good, but in-person…it’s amazing. We were so comfortable and felt welcomed. The location is quiet and so close to the water (which was clean too)! We loved the outdoor spaces and the beds were comfortable. The check-out “directions” were unexpected. Most rentals ask you to practically clean the house, causing you to wonder why you’re paying a cleaning fee at all. This property owner really wanted you to remember the reason you came in the first place….we were only asked to do the minimum. That was a sweet surprise! We will definitely be visiting this property again!
